Buy I'm in Texas

I've got a local store that may be able to order it. I've got a couple other bottles to finish first though. Mrs. LST is tolerant of me stockpiling beer, I don't want to push my luck with bourbon too. I have Maker's, 1835 Texas, and Blanton's now to work on, but Elmer T Lee or Four Roses will be next

Drank a good bit of this last night with my new ice ball. The sphere mold worked pretty well in producing a nice ball of ice. I need to play with the amount of water I put in I think. But it melted MUCH slower and kept several drinks chilled.

Bbrou33, I have a pair of ice molds, same brand as yours. The key is to use bottled water and freeze them inside a Ziploc bag. If it freezes inside the bag, the ice does not take on the smell of whatever you have in your freezer, and your ice balls will be clear and not cloudy.
